Dick Hoekstra abstract: The effects of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the fluorescence behavior of the
phospholipid analogues 1-acyl-2-[6-[(7-nitro-2, 1, 3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl) amino] caproyl] …

Abstract The effect of 1, 2-dioleoyglycerol (1, 2-DOG) on the promotion of Ca 2+-induced
fusion of phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine (PS/PC) vesicles was studied. 1, 2-DOG is …

Calcium-induced fusion of liposomes was studied with a view to understand the role of
membrane tension in this process. Lipid mixing due to fusion was monitored by following …

We have investigated the contribution of various phospholipids to membrane fusion induced
by divalent cations. Fusion was followed by means of a new fluorescence assay monitoring …

Studies on the fusion of phospholipid vesicles have provided considerable insight into the
molecular mechanism of membrane fusion and the role of specific molecules in this process …

February 14, 1984 abstract: Polylysine promoted extensive membrane mixing of liposomes …

The relative kinetics of intermixing and release of liposome aqueous contents during Ca 2+-
induced membrane fusion has been investigated. Fusion was monitored by the Tb …

Dick Hoekstra** abstract: The relationship between lipid phase separation and fusion of
small unilamellar phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles was investigated. The kinetics of …

Sonicated unilamellar liposomes containing phosphatidylethanolamine and
palmitoylhomocysteine fuse rapidly when the medium pH is lowered from 7 to 5. Liposome …
